A place to share the sights, history, events, and people of the desert--families, tourists, artists, and wanderers. One day, when you stop on a desert road, get out of your car, walk around and experience the landscape up close. The desert will get under your skin. Maybe into your soul...

The Boston Common... the oldest park in America and one of the loveliest places on earth with its willows, flowers, and swan boats, propelled with a foot pedal by the driver. My favorite spot in the city.

We visited Boston on a recent trip east. Boston's a very cool city with an interesting mix of the old and new--colonial graveyards set between skyscrapers, old pubs and trendy restaurants, and the Freedom Trail that weaves its way through the center of town.

I loved the green lamps in this enormous, quiet room that looked like a good place to study.
